Patent AU-742962-B2 (AU)
Title: Inhalation apparatus for powder medications
Inventor: GOLDEMANN RAUL
IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 1998-12-22
Granted: 2002-01-17
Abstract: An inhalation device for administering powdered forms of medication includes a housing with a rotatable dosing ball associated with an opening of a powdered reservoir located inside the housing. The dosing ball may be operated manually and includes a peripheral dosing cavity for receiving a dose of powder. The dosing ball is connected with a torsion spring and further includes a stop piece. In addition, the dosing ball is associated with a pivotable trip flap that has a movable limit stop. The dosing ball is preloaded by turning the dosing ball until the stop piece comes to rest on the movable limit stop of the trip flap. The dosing ball is then released as normal user breathing triggers a swaying of the trip flap. The stop piece is configured to hit against the bottom of the housing which abruptly blocks acceleration of the dosing ball, which in turn causes the medicine to be catapulted out of the dosing cavity and be widely dispersed in the stream of respiratory air so that the medicine may be inhaled completed and in sync with respiration. Overdosing or release of multiple doses is thus prevented by the inhalation device.

Title: Method and apparatus for providing wireless communication system synchronization
Inventor: WALLACE MARK S
IPC: H04W92/00
Filed: 1999-12-03
Granted: 2004-01-15
Abstract: When insufficient traffic is present in the network to maintain synchronization in this manner, other methods must be used. One approach involves making direct measurements of the timing between base stations (602, 604). This is accomplished in one of two ways. The base may interrupt its transmissions on all sectors for a short interval during which it determines the time of arrival of signals from other base stations (602, 604). Given knowledge of the other base station locations, time errors relative to all other base stations (602, 604) may be derived. Alternatively, the base may send a short signal at high power in the mobile transmit band. This time-of-arrival of this signal is measured by the surrounding base stations and the time errors between pairs of base stations are computed. In some cases, a base station (602, 604) may be isolated sufficiently from all other base stations in the network such that direct base-to-base measurement is not viable. In this case, a fixed mobile (606) is placed at a location in the handoff region between the isolated cell and another cell in the network. The fixed mobile (606) either performs measurements of base station pilots on command of the base and reports the timing information, or sends a burst transmission at a specified time and power level to be measured by the base stations.
